Terminal for secondary battery and method for manufacturing terminal for secondary battery

Abstract

Provided is a method for manufacturing an electrode terminal formed of different kinds of metals excellent injunction strength. The manufacturing method of a terminal herein disclosed includes the following steps of: preparing a first member and a second member each made of a metal and forming the terminal, with the first member being formed in a sheet shape and having at one surface thereof a concave part for allowing a part of the second member to be fitted therein, and with the second member having a flange part to be accommodated in the concave part; and fixing the first member and the second member to each other by ultrasonic pressure contact, with the ultrasonic pressure contact being performed by applying an ultrasonic wave vibration while applying a pressure in a direction of stacking of the first member and the second member in a state where the flange part of the second member is arranged in the concave part of the first member, thereby extending the flange part, and bringing a part of the extended flange part into pressure contact with an inner wall surface of the concave part.
